Can we have a tutoring session tomorrow night at 5:40 PM (4:40 PM your time) ? I really really really want to have one last session with you before the round ends ^_^

Length of time can vary, but if you wanna hop on for a bit now, we can at least discuss some stuff ^.^

I'm almost always on around this time of night; otherwise, it varies by day. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays I'm on a lot, Tuesdays I work 12 hours straight, and weekends I'm usually at work, though still around in the early afternoon. I'm EST, if that makes a difference~

Did you make the GP team? :)

Thanks. I've been pretty inactive around here but who knows, maybe I'll get back into it. Good to know for sure

Yeah, I got it. I haven't had the time to review everything (8 other am GPers hit me up at around the same time, but I wanna give you all equal treatment >.>), but whenever I catch you on IRC, we can talk about your checks~

I'd respond via PM, but IRC is a lot easier for asking questions, generating feedback, and discussion in general ^.^

Hey, I'll be on Groudon's Grotto now if you want to be tutored ^_^

I'd be glad if we could get some few sessions in before the tutoring round is over so you can learn more stuff :)

I've been at it for a couple of months. I suggest looking at other's checks and see what your doing wrong. =] That's what I did ^_^

Go Tide Big Difference, sounds the same to me!

Gato, you go to Alabama? What are you majoring in, you might know my friend that went to Bama

Go Tide

yeah my science teachers were all fantastic throughout high school and they revolutionized my philosophy on education. i also had a really awesome science teacher in middle school. i doubt i could ever go into teaching myself however... my friends tell me i'm very condescending when i help people with their work and i think they're right. i don't think it's the kind of job i'll ever do well lol

university of waterloo in ontario, canada. i'm a city kid (born in toronto, also in canada) where as waterloo is a bit of a ways out, but a reasonable environment regardless. it's pretty average, except for a world-class coop program where it arranges work terms interspersed through your study. companies agree with the university to offer jobs to inexperienced lower-years in exchange for hiring access to higher year, qualified students at the kind of wages you'd have to pay a student (ie lower than an adult employee). as a result, students of my university have 20 months of work experience coming out of uni (in exchange, the total time in uni goes from 4 years to 4 yrs + 8 months). that's basically the only thing waterloo has going for it, but it is a BIG thing, obviously. you get paid too ofc, so it offsets the tuition costs.

and props on aerospace, a few of my friends are going into some intense engineering programs and i know at least one of them wants to go into aero

majoring in computer science at the moment and planning for a career in commercial software programming. however i am in first year and yknow how university is lol, people change. i have been programming since grade 4 (no joke, i started learning C++ way back then) so i expect that this is where i will stay, but who knows where i will be in four years.

i have strong appreciation for physics and chemistry but i don't think i could do research as a job. i was interning at a hospital helping in MRI research over the summer (the slacking off in the computer lab was what motivated me to come onto smogon more often) and it was a lot of fun, but i can't imagine myself doing it day in day out. also i feel that the career potential of pure sciences is really rather limited on its own, compared to compsci where job demand is high.

ultimately the only thing you can take away from all this though is "he's in first year so anything could happen" lol

Available tomorrow for some more tutoring :)

Alright, I'm on Grotto now ;)

Sorry, I can't tutor you atm, no PO on this computer and my sister is using my laptop -_-

I'll let you know when I can get on.

Great, see you tomorrow!
Hope you sleep well :)

Greetings, would a tutoring session tomorrow morning at 9 AM EST (8 AM over where you live!) be fine with you? If it's too early, we could meet up later during the day ^_^

Hey, won't be able to tutor you until Friday due to being busy with schoolwork, sorry. Will contact you on Friday ;)

I'm on now ;)

Hey, I'll be able to tutor you at around 5 PM EST (in ~3 hours). Is that ok with you?

I don't want to continue that "fracas" so I want to reply your post here. Yes, it's just pointless. People should learn that posting one time with good arguments is sufficient if the other user can't reply with another good argument. You don't need to repeat the same arguments again and again even when you are right, this is boring and makes it seem that you want to flame and impose your arguments against the other user.

This is so boring that I didn't even read most of their posts, only this post about Stealth Rock that caught my attention.

Yea, see you there :)

1.5 hours

Is 5 PM ok with you?
